Kooth @Preston Lodge HS

What is Kooth? 

Kooth is a free, safe and anonymous mental health resource for children and young people.

The online platform offers direct text-based mental health support, a wellbeing magazine, discussion boards, mini self-care activities and journaling/goal setting tools - all to help support better emotional and mental wellbeing. 

How can a young person use Kooth?

All Kooth services are available to those aged 10-26 in East Lothian without a waiting list or referral and can offer support with anything that is worrying or bothering them.

Many young people find our service particularly useful out of hours when their normal support systems are unavailable, or if they’re not ready to talk to someone in-person yet. 

Sign up is quick and free, and most importantly doesn’t require any identifiable information. It’s possible to sign up and use Kooth on any device at www.kooth.com.
